Pistol sucks

The pistol in this game is a total joke — you can’t even kill someone from behind. Dude just turns around and melts you instantly.

The damage per bullet is just pathetic. Base damage should be at least 33.

The progression system is trash. The pistol needs a suppressor more than anything else, but for some reason it only unlocks at level 20 — later than on rifles. And why the hell does the pistol only get 60 attachment points when every other weapon has 100? What’s the point? The pistol is already the weakest weapon in the game, just let us use the full 100 points. Why nerf something that’s already garbage?

I’m dropping 40+ kills every match with a 3+ K/D and even then it’s hard to get kills with this pistol, even if I catch someone off guard and start shooting first. The pistol is only useful to finish off already low HP enemies, that’s it. The famous line “It’s faster to pull out a pistol than reload your weapon” doesn’t even apply here. I’d rather hide, reload, and actually secure the kill with a real gun.

What makes it worse is the netcode. You unload your mag, screen lights up with hitmarkers, and then the guy kills you while he still has like 36–40 HP left.

I’m not even sure if there’s bloom on this pistol, but it really feels like there is. If that’s the case, get rid of it — it’s disgusting.

I maxed out every weapon to level 20 during the beta, but this pistol? Absolute disaster. Zero damage, zero useful attachments, and the last 4–5 levels before 20 don’t even unlock anything at all.
